Publisher Description
Once upon a time, the Grimms' fairy tales taught lessons. Now, the Grimm Reaper does.
New detective Chelsea Sullivan is partnered with a maverick famous for closing cases and infamous for how he does it. He has a target on his back and a chip on his shoulder. Not exactly how she hoped to kick off her first homicide case.
Jim McPherson doesn't mind showing an up-and-comer the ropes, but he does mind when she keeps putting herself in harm's way. Especially since her innocence is exactly the trait the serial killer seems to be targeting. Unless they're missing a crucial detail. And he can't help but think his new partner knows what it is.
The body count is rising and the Grimm Reaper is after Chelsea. If they can't catch him before he catches her, there will be no happily ever after.

Customer Reviews
Once upon a crime
A good plot somewhat of a pity that the lead character comes across as somewhat childish given that she was a police officer for some years. I felt like reaching into the story and giving her a smack and telling her to grow up.
Juvenile bickering is too much
The constant and unrealistic bickering between the two main characters makes this book unreadable.
Good but predictable
Solved the mystery within the first few chapters, which made it very easy to see through whilst reading. Apart from being super predictable it was still a good read, just lacking any surprise twist or turn.
